preparatory to starting on a trip to

the first opportunity for writing.

In Liverpool paper | noted the arri-
val OF the Hawaiian Queenand her royal
company in that city, and how the
Mayor was 8 going TO escort them
through the places of note. the thought
occurred, now nice it would be to fall in
wIth such a company and be escorted
also. ] at once proceeded to the Walker
Art Gallery, and there waited with q
great crowd for their arrival. My fond
anticipation began 10 vanish when
large policeman began clearing the way

whether l should enjoy the distinction
of even seeing them. Butremembe;ing
l Was in England, l uncovered my head
as l addressed the favored police, aud

queen. We'll, stand at that door," said
the policeman, and there ] took my
stand like lone sentinel, watching him
move the crowd. The policeman must
have mistaken his orders, for he had
placed me at the right-hand side of the
door, and when the grand people made
their appearance they also turned to
the right and thus was brought face to
face with the honored queen. Imagine

straight at me, but failed to recognize

to train for Vamdrup; he smiled at
my trying to making him understand,
and then kindly directed the way to the
train. / thanked him for his kindness
and there took seat, yet noticing an
inQ1iring look on the countenance of
my friend. Instantly the train began
TO move, and then my escort created q
lively little scene by trying to keep up
with the car, and Loudly shouting,
" Money money!" In my excitement
| threw him a mark, for which an old
lady who had watched the performance,
gave me a little scolding. When l
again had to change cars l decided to
wait upon myself, and accordingly l

noticing the uneasy demeanor. of my
companions. They acted so excitedly
that felt little uneasy, but tried to
compose myself with the idea that 1t
was probably my good looks that had
affected them. Soon I Was startled BIZ
